DADANT QUALITY IN MACHINE MADE 



FOUNDATION 



The Weed Process was not invented in a single day. E. B. Weed 

 who invented the present system of machinery on which Dadant's 

 Foundation is manufactured made many experiments before he was 

 successful. 



Part of his experiments were made at the Dadant factory. Some 

 of our older workmen can still recall the hot wax squirting every- 

 where from the jaws 

 of different presses 

 before the modern 

 sheeting machine 

 was finally evolved. 



His process was 

 promptly accepted 

 by the Dadants as 

 a step forward, not 

 in the making of a 

 foundation su- 

 perior to the hand 

 made, but of insur- 

 ing quantities suffi- 

 cient to supply an 

 ever growing de- 

 mand. 



Into this process 

 was carried all the 

 care, all the pains, 

 all the tests, which 



Sheeting wax on Weed Machines for milling into Dadant's Foundation 



had made Dadant's Foundation so well liked. 



Nailing machines have largely replaced hammers, and trucks taken 

 the place of horses and wagons, but the same care, the same ex- 

 actness of having all foundation first of all satisfactory to the 

 Dadants and to the Dadant bees is still exercised and will continue 

 to be.
